Bug#316321: Fixed in 2.0.55-4.2?

[Patrick Winnertz <patrick.winnertz@skolelinux.org>]

I think this bug is at least fixed in 2.0.55-4.2. 

I looked at the initscript of apache2 and found this as reload:

 log_begin_msg "Reloading apache 2.0 configuration..."
                if $APACHE2CTL graceful $2 ; then
                        log_end_msg 0
                else
                        log_end_msg 1
                fi

it does a graceful restart, without interrupting the current
connections. 
It doesn't do anything if the configuration files are broken (it does a
configtest before the reload) and if they aren't broken the apache is
reloaded. 
If the apache doesn't run, apache is started.

I think this is a good behaviour of the initscript and think the bug can
be closed.
